Bunnies rescued from gravel pile

Mar 29, 2009 11:55




clipped from news.bbc.co.ukVolunteer workman Graham Bromley was getting ready to start work on a community garden when he spotted a bundle of moving fluff in the gravel

He carefully dug it out and realised it was a rabbit's tail on top of three other buried bunnies

The animals have now been checked by the RSPCA and when they are well they will be released into the wild

Mr Bromley made the discovery while he was with three landscape contractors taking delivery of chippings for the new garden, Green Heart Den, between Marsh Street and the railway line

What I thought was a bit of fluff turned out to be a rabbit's bottom stuck up in the air

Every time I loosened the gravel by hand I found something else moving and found another rabbit

They were alive, but groggy and cold

One of the lads got a sweat shirt from his van and wrapped them up and we rubbed them a bit to keep them warm and bring them round

Mr Bromley took the rabbits home in a recycling box and kept them in hay until they came round and were collected by the RSPCA
